<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;" class="">The main purpose of NXS is to educate graduate students in the use of major neutron and x-ray facilities. Lectures, presented by researchers from academia, industry, and national laboratories, include basic tutorials
on the principles of scattering theory and the characteristics of the sources, as well as seminars on the application of scattering methods to a variety of scientific subjects. <font face="Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="3" class="">Students will conduct
short in-person experimental tutorials at </font>Argonne’s Advanced Photon source and <font face="Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="3" class="">at Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Spallation Neutron Source and High Flux Isotope Reactor, which provide hands-on
experience for using neutron and synchrotron sources</font><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="">.</span></div>
